Answer:

Use 3 times as many boxes of rice

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Using proportion

\frac{4}{13}\frac{boxes}{people}=\frac{x}{39}\frac{boxes}{people} \\ \\x=39*4/13\\ \\x=12\ boxes

original quantity of boxes ----->  4

boxes needed ----->  12

12=3*(4)

therefore

Use 3 times as many boxes of rice

Nataly [62]

Answer:

1.5c - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the expression by 4 because a square has 4 sides of equal length.

6c - 4(0-5) = 6c - 20;

-1 + 1.9x = -6.4 + 9.2x
natka813 [3]

Answer:

0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

We can isolate x, getting 9.2x - 1.9x = -1 + 6.4

We can then simplify, getting 7.3x = 5.4, which we can solve by dividing both sides by 7.3:

x = 5.4 / 7.3 = 0.74
